Okaloosa County Sheriff’s deputies Joseph Trimboli and Eric Keyes responded to a traffic crash with injuries on Main Street in Destin. They arrived to find heavy flames around the rear of the car. The flames were spreading to the inside and the driver was still behind the wheel with the door locked.
Deputy Keyes had to hit and shatter the passenger side window to get the man out alive. The individual’s clothes were already on fire. With the car fully engulfed, deputies Keyes and Trimboli pulled him thrown the broken window, risking their own lives to save the driver’s. The man later expressed his gratitude for their heroic efforts.Posted By Ghost
